Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb. large shrimp, shelled and deveined (at least 36)
  • 24 small shishito peppers
  • 12 wooden skewers, soaked

Shrimp Rub

  • 3 tbsp. white or yellow miso
  • 3 tbsp. fresh lime juice
  • 2 tbsp. mirin
  • 3 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 tbsp. finely grated fresh ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp. brown sugar

1 Food Prep

  • Next, add the shrimp, and rub to coat evenly. Then, let sit for 20 minutes.

3 The Cook

  • When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.

  • Place the shrimp skewers on the grill, and cook until the peppers are slightly charred and the shrimp is cooked through, about 2–3 minutes on each side. Don’t overcook your shrimp, they cook quickly. Fully cooked shrimp turn pinkish on the outside and white on the inside.

  • When the shrimp reaches an internal temperature of 145°F on a digital meat thermometer, remove the shrimp skewers from the grill.

  • Serve immediately and enjoy.
